The weather was ideal?two of those beautiful Indian summer days for which our balmy South is so jusK celebrated; the attendance of the delegates was creditfcle, the discussions of the 'various topics on ^the program, by both the regular appointees and the volunteers were interesting, instructive and inspiring; the music led by that genial Georgian, James F. Johnson, with Miss Lizzie Neej at the organ, was helpful and dAlierhtifivl and added sreatlv to the pleasures of a charming contention; the hospitality of the people of the comunity was whole-souled and unstinted. There was genuine regret that so few ministers were in attendance, but those who were there did valiant service ior tne cause. Rev. J. W. Carson presided over 'the convention and Mr. J. B. O'Neall Hoi-. Joway was secretary. The following committees were appointed: On statistics?C. H. Cannon, Rev. E. Fulenwrder, i.Virs. J. M. Workman, Prof. O. B. Cannon, Miss Lizzie Neel and Rev. T. C.

''The hesitating, Hamlet type of man had best keep out of finance," said Mr. | Lawson at a recent dinner, accorumg to Everybody's Magazine. "I had a boyhood friend of the type I mean?a fellow named Grimes. He was a falr terer, a doubter of the most exagger j ated sort. j "One evening I stopped to call on 51 him and found him in a deep study; I bent over a white waistcoat lying on a table. t " 'Hello, Grimes,' I said, 'What's the trouble?' " This waistcoat," he replied, holdk j ing the garment up to view. 'It's too dirty to wear, and not dirty enough to t j send to the laundry. I don't kno~ 1 what to do about it.'"
